Description

The Father’s Day Bundle includes Sam Knight’s brilliant The Premonitions Bureau, Lea Ypi’s astonishing memoir Free and a Father’s Day card.

What if somehow you knew that something terrible was going to happen? What if you could share your vision, and stop the event? Could these forebodings help the world to prevent disasters? In 1966, John Barker, a dynamic psychiatrist working in an outdated British mental hospital, established The Premonitions Bureau to investigate these questions. He would find a network of hundreds of correspondents, from bank clerks to ballet teachers. Among them were two unnervingly gifted “percipients”. Together, the pair predicted plane crashes, assassinations and international incidents, with uncanny accuracy. And then, they informed Barker of their most disturbing premonition: that he was about to die. The Premonitions Bureau is an enthralling true story, of madness and wonder, science and the supernatural, and a masterpiece of modern narrative non-fiction from Sam Knight, The New Yorker’s man in London.

Free is an engrossing memoir of coming of age amid political upheaval. With acute insight and wit, Lea Ypi traces the limits of progress and the burden of the past, illuminating the spaces between ideals and reality, and the hopes and fears of people pulled up by the sweep of history.
